Well (touch wood) my GP Wiz has been thoroughly used and abused and it's still 100% with good battery life. I think the key is getting a second hand unit from someone you can trust.

Regarding the GDP XD - I've not had a lot of use so far but it seems fine. As far as the 2018 model goes, I heard the older units are better (but I can't recall why). Ultimately I'd like the GDP WIN but that's out of my 'justification' price bracket.

Just to add - I'm still setting up my GPD XD, the ultimate goal is to have it hooked up to the TV with a couple of wireless controllers giving me a 'front room arcade/retrostation'. When I want to go portable I can just unplug and away I go.

Seems to good an idea not to implement with a total cost ~ £130 which to me seems a bargain

I have most the consoles for real in the loft, one day I hope to get the gaming cabin (which has a full size arcade cabinet!) all setup so you can play any console quite easily...setting them up is not such an easy task with all the different input/output types! lol
